Rain rain go AWAY!

Luck.......I have had NONE lately! You know the saying when it rains it pours? Well it is pouring right now! It has been a series of unfortunate events at my house the past week or so.......the kind of luck that is COMEDY worthy. Well here we go I will entertain you with my life!!!! 
Deep breathe here we go..........So it all started with my van. It is overheating and there is a clunky noise from underneath and a squealy belt like noise going on. Which only translates to me like this $$$$$$$!  I  have only been driving when absolutely necessary! Then we noticed some water around the toilets in both bathrooms. Well Tomas put on his plumber hat and showed a lil' butt crack and figured out that the tank is cracked on our main toilet! So it is leaking into the other bathroom! So there again $$$$$! And if that is not enough to just make your head spin......along comes Friday and there is NO DEPOSIT! None zilch nada a big fat zero! Come to find out NOBODY got paid. What the ???? How the???? I mean seriously! I have a sqealy clunkity van and a leaky toilet and NO $$$$$$! Ok are you cracking up yet? It gets better! So all this stress but hey let's throw in a slumber party and a wienie roast! I mean why not??? So no relaxing all weekend, everyone is GROUCHY in my house and really need to get laundry started for Monday and guess what??? Yup you guessed it NO SOAP! None not a drop! Good thing everyone did have something to wear! Monday is here finally here.....awwww! Sigh of relief right? NO no NO! Still no deposit and no answers! Get the girls ready for school and of course no bread for lunches and  1 juice box left! Hello Monday! Izzi forgets her jacket so I have to make a trip back to the school......then I notice that Claudia forgot he water bottle for her lunch.....trip #2 to the school! I must say I am a good momma! So after school I go to get gas and while I am pumping the gas my 10 year old gets out (she is the only one with me) and accidentally locks  the van. Yes the clunkity squealy van! And wait did I mention I had both sets of keys with me? Well I did! So thank God my mom was there in  her van and had her phone cuz mine was locked in the van! We called the lock smith and 30 minutes and $40 later we were in! So there you have it! That is my series of unfortunate events and I am praying that the lil' black rain cloud is moving on to the next poor soul! Yes it is FUNNY to read NOW but I can't say that I was laughing then.....and I can't repeat the things that  were said either......I am not always an ANGEL!!  ;o) Well a lil' bird said blog about it sista' so that I have done and now I can laugh about it..........um NOPE not yet but at least ya'll can get a kick out of a day in the life of ME!
Well that is  all I can take for today HELL for a year! I am eating me some popcorn and ending this day with my family! P.j.s on and I am doing nothing more for today! GOOD BYE bad luck you are not welcome anymore!
Until we meet again ~Jen~

ChRiStMaS...........I am SOOOOO decoratin' for it already!

I have been trying to "clean" from top to bottom each room in mi' casa and while I am doing this I am gonna go ahead and start gettin' my Christmas stuff out! YES I said it I am going to start decorating for my favorite time of the year! Call me CRaZY........go ahead I will wait....O.K. I look at it like this I love my Christmas decorations and I want them out as long as possible so if  Walmart can do it why can't I????? Hmmm! Now you are thinking about it too huh? Maybe my tree (then me clarify that, my main tree) won't go up right away but the 5,000 santa's and 1,000,000 snowmen will be coming out of hibernation really soon! There are 3 snowmen in my living room right now as we speak! I love decorating and I love buying gifts for people and I love the whole feeling that the holidays radiates! It is really the most WoNdErFuL time of the year! Little by little my house will be transformed into a winter wonderland....each and every room! O.k. maybe not the bathrooms but all the rest! Now the only crappy thing is getting some the MANY boxes and totes from my mom's attic! Grrrrr! Honey can you do me a favor? That is a big (clears throat....H*LL NO) no dear not YET! But really does the big guy have a say....um no not really! Sorry honey I love you but I am just not giving you that control!!! ;o) 
SO my stinkin' van is on the fritz. Not really sure what is going on with it because one day it runs perfecto and the next not SO perfecto! I get it everyone has their days but really I kinda need my van. We kindalive in it somedays......well most days it seems! I had to drive the hubby's truck to get the girls and yeah that is NOT really cool at all! Just not digging the whole stick thing! Oh well it will all work out one way or another! =) 
Until next time.........believe it or not I have nothing more to say! ;o)
